    I'm finding that the people who complane the most are usually the people who
    have no business working with Virii and are only as good as there Outlook

    Sorry Gadi, but you where told a long time back to quit when you where only
    marginally behind.

    I believe at this point your speaking while your typing to hear your own

    please stop! why don't you go take a class or something.
